The answer

We recommend frequent supplication (du'a), as Allah has commanded it and promised to respond. It is not permissible to use sex toys, and masturbation is forbidden and has its harms, unless there is a genuine necessity for it, such as the fear of falling into adultery, and necessity is estimated by its measure. The earth is vast, so if marriage is not possible in your country, then look elsewhere, while paying attention to the regulations for residing in non-Muslim countries.
